Petracca and the Demons released a statement on Saturday evening, confirming he would be sticking around at the club where he’s contracted until the end of 2029.

That's the end of the Petracca BS
Yes
Melbourne , Petracca and his manager would have finally sat down for a chat .
Melbourne would have said "We love ya chrissie, if you want to leave we'll help but you do realise that under the terms of your contract, it's gunna cost ya this many zerooooooooes."
Petracca would have looked at his manager who'd be nodding in agreement.
Then he would have jumped up shouting " but I'm not going anywhere baby !!! WooHoo Go Dee's!!!! " as he left the room whistling it's a grand ol flag .
:lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

I don’t reckon the clubs he wanted to go to

1/ had the draft capital or trade capital for him
2/ the cap space available

Or saw him as as reliable commodity. Any longer.

He’d make any team automatically better

But you’ve gotta have the cap space or trade capital to get him

I reckon the clubs indicated it wasn’t possible

It's all possible if you want it enough. I doubt they wanted him. Petracca 2025 unlikely to be as good as Petracca 2023 early 2024. They didn't want him at the price.

Yep, even so, Petracca decided to stay at a club with the best culture Pert has seen in 40 years. :lol: :lol: :lol:
